The state is committing $70 million to offset cuts to Affordable Care Act subsidies, shielding thousands of families from huge expected health care increases in the new year.

The governor signed legislation that we passed in a November special session to address Waterbury's and Connecticut's long-standing housing shortage.

Due to dangerously frigid weather, the state's severe cold weather protocol is in effect until 12 p.m. on Tuesday, December 9. Click here for a list of warming centers in Waterbury.

I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I am especially grateful to those who opened their hearts and offered free holiday meals to the community.

Connecticut is adding 1,000 new spaces to the state’s Early Start CT program. We are mourning the passing of my colleague, Representative Kevin Ryan.

Starting January 1, the supply portion of electric bills for Eversource will increase. I want to share the resources available to help this winter.

I was proud to join my House colleagues to approve legislation preserving access to health care at Waterbury Hospital. We voted in favor of a deal for the University of Connecticut Health Center to buy the hospital for $13 million.

The House, and eventually the Senate, will vote on a proposal to set aside another $500 million for a federal emergency relief fund, ensuring that our state has a financial backstop to protect our residents.
